gold ridge

I hiked up the ridge again yesterday, this time with a friend and my ski-swap snowboard. We went as high as Gold Ridge, then turned around and came down in soft snow and steep terrain. Julie fell in a crevasse and I crashed hard, but otherwise it was a pretty mellow, wonderful Juneau hike. We saw ptarmigan (and their black fan tails) and a fat marmot. Still plenty of snow.
